I'm at my wits end! I can't find anyone who sells the tree I want
Comments (9)Thanks everyone for your replies! Snooper, I called Concord Nurseries and they don't sell this tree anymore. He said the demand went down for it. He said that demand goes up and down for all trees and that the Globe Norway Maple is a great and hardy tree and good luck on finding it. Ken, I understand what you are saying about monocultures, but this is not a garden. I am lining one side of my property with the trees, not making a garden or anything close to it. This is our taste and just as I am sick and tired of seeing Crimson Kings and Red Maples up and down my road, i have to respect such property owner's taste. We happen to love the look of this tree and we also are happy it doesn't get too tall because of power line issues. I found a nursery in a nearby county who will be able to easily get the trees for me come spring. He said he sells the trees from time to time and that he personally likes them but their popularity waxes and wanes. I am very happy to be able to now put this tree searcg anxiety to rest. lol I am sorry to hear that you have had trouble locating items for so long. I am sure me griping about a few weeks must have come across as petulant and I apologize. I have never even planted a flower before so this is all knew to me. Just last week I planted grass seed and today saw some grass start to perk up through the grass seed. I felt like I had won the lottery. lol Hey, it's a start? Thank you for your link. I called them and they had 4 of them, but I need 5. One of the four was "bushier" than the other too she said. We want 5 from the same grower as I have heard that is better instead of buying one here and 3 from there.... Brandon, I will be babying these trees like you wouldn't believe; already looking at tree shelters and protectors for them. lol I won't let a pest issue even begin, but if it does I'll be on top of it so it won't get out of hand. I have been reading it is a pretty hardy tree.... rhizo, I can't believe more people don't love this tree, but people in Oregon and Canada (about 2 hours from here) are growing this tree all over the place so there IS demand somewhere, especially when the several places I called in Oregon only had a few left. We love the tree. It's the shape that makes it so beautiful imo. Everyone around here has the exact same thing so we look forward to providing a little variety for people. Misshenry, I called ForestFarm and yes they told me $39 for the tree and $85 for delivery for each tree. Considering the prices of some other trees we had earlier considered from nurseries around here, that were running $170-300 a tree, we considered FF's price, even with shipping, to be a bargain. Bboy, tell me how you really feel about the tree? lol You think it looks like the end result of mal pruning? Yikes. If you saw the moncoulture of all that is in my area you would long for something different. I think Crimson Kings and Red Maples, all Oaks, and Christmas trees grown for privacy, which is done all the time around here, one of the most yawn-inducing things you can do to your yard, but like in all things, your mileage may vary. Thanks again, everyone, for your replies and help. I was directed to nurseryguide.com by a grower which led me to a grower in OR which then they gave me a list of growers in my area that ordered from them and the rest is history. Now the hard part is the wait til spring....Have a good weekend everyone....See MoreI can't find the peony i want anywhere.. any suggestions?
Comments (13)You can try growing them from seeds. On eBay, they always have the auctions for 20 seeds, starting at 99 cents and they come in all different colors so you might find the kind that you want. They even sometimes have the one for 50 seeds at 99 cents which is harder to bid, but I've won it before a few times at the starting bid. If they are planted now, most of them will likely germinate spring of 2013, but they are very rewarding and I believe they are well worth the wait, if you have a spare garden bed or pots for them. They also have a very high germination rate. Here's my latest blog on them. Here is a link that might be useful: seedlings...See MoreWANTED: Told You I Was South! Told You I Was South!
Comments (36)You girls are too funny! Sorry about your worry Cathy. I'm sure Kathleen worked very hard trying to put together a swap package that I would like so I didn't want to post any peace-mil (sp?) pictures. I wanted all of it posted together. If the other box did get lost I will post pictures in a couple of days though. I don't want you ladies to be inside those caskets instead of out....See MoreI can't find the tread about putting sliders under furniture HELP
Comments (5)Amazon sells them. Just enter "furniture sliders" and you'll see quite an array. And...yes...they work under everything. Look for weight allowances/restrictions on the packaged size of the sliders. I've used them for eons on very heavy furniture as well as bed frames . I'd be lost without them. They're wonderful!...See More- 7 years ago
